The Nature of Witches by Rachel Griffin

4.5

 Something about this book just hit me in the exact right way. I loved the premise of this book. Magical witches are each connected to a season in which their power is most strong and when they feel most themselves, but Clara is unique. She is an ever witch and her powers change to match every season. This makes her incredibly special, but it comes with some downfalls. She tries to keep everyone at arms length in order to keep them safe, but Sang wiggles himself in. Their romance felt real. You could feel their chemistry grow through time and friendship. We also get to see Clara open herself up to platonic friendship as the story goes on and it was heartwarming to see her accept herself and how that helps her find community.

Climate change is such a huge part of this book and it is done really well. I love that the witches are using their magic to try to fix the natural disasters brought on by climate change, but magic can't single handedly solve it. Witches & humans must work together to slowly fix the damage made.

This is my first book by Rachel Griffin, but I own a few others and can't wait to pick them up.
